HMC907LP5E v00.0510 Amplifiers - Linear & Power - SMT 9 Typical Applications Features The HMC907LP5E is ideal for: High P1dB Output Power: +26 dBm * Test Instrumentation High Gain: 12 dB * Microwave Radio & VSAT High Output IP3: +36 dBm * Military & Space Single Supply: +10 V @ 350 mA * Telecom Infrastructure 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output * Fiber Optics 32 Lead 5x5 mm SMT Package: 25 mm Functional Diagram General Description The HMC907LP5E is a GaAs MMIC pHEMT Distributed Power Amplifier which operates between 0.2 and 22 GHz. This self-biased power amplifier provides 12 dB of gain, +36 dBm output IP3 and +26 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression while requiring only 350 mA from a +10 V supply. Gain flatness is excellent at 0.7 dB from 0.2 to 22 GHz making the HMC907LP5E ideal for EW, ECM, Radar and test equipment applications. The HMC907LP5E amplifier I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms facilitating integration into Mutli-Chip-Modules (MCMs) and is packaged in a leadless QFN 5x5 mm surface mount package, and requires no external matching components.

Signal lines should have 50 Ohm impedance while the package ground leads and exposed paddle should be connected directly to the ground plane similar to that shown. A sufficient number of via holes should be used to connect the top and bottom ground planes. The evaluation board should be mounted to an appropriate heat sink. The evaluation circuit board shown is available from Hittite upon request.
